  • @SuperLittleTyke
    @SuperLittleTyke 2 дні тому

    There's another tip I can give: If you don't have a large flat surface anywhere to unroll the blind in order to cut it to size, get a length of broom handle and wrap the end around it. So you have the main tube at the top and the broom handle "tube" at the bottom. By unrolling at the top and rolling at the bottom you will eventually have all the fabric wound round the temporary tube, thus exposing the metal tube at the top. My dining table is only 75cm x 75cm and it was plenty large enough to work on. Now you can apply your width measurement to the metal tube and saw off the end of the tube. To mark the fabric for cutting, roll the blind in stages off the temporary tube and onto the metal tube until most of the fabric is on the metal tube. You can now measure and cut the fabric to the required width. After you have cut about 30cm off, carry on rolling and unrolling to expose more of the fabric, then mark and cut off the next strip. If you take care, the cut edge is almost as clean as if you had laid the fabric down on a floor and cut it all in one go. I've just done this today and the new blind is up! It rolls up and down fine. However, next time I need a roller blind I'm going to try one of the no-drill blinds. These are more expensive, but you don't need to drill any holes for mounting brackets. The blind clamps in place between the window recess and there is an adjustment wheel to ensure a tight fit.

  • @SuperLittleTyke
    @SuperLittleTyke 3 дні тому

    Now I've found the better quality audio version I finished watching this to the end. First handy tip was to measure the width with the bracket end pieces in place. This greatly assisted cutting the tube accurately. The second tip was the toothed wheel to retract the stub, then let lt spring back into the bracket. I've never seen this type of fitting on any roller blind in England. A tip of my own is how to rectify a tube that one has cut a little bit too short. Find a piece of aluminium tube that fits snugly inside the roller blind tube and join the two sections of roller blind tube together. You could even plan to cut the tube slightly shorter deliberately and adjust the length to the precise measurement with the bracket end pieces in place. Only cut the fabric once the exact tube width has been established. My tube is 25mm in diameter and it is fairly easy to find suitable aluminium tube in DIY shops that will slide inside. If the joint tube (the alu one) is not tight enough in the main tube, superglue could probably help. Or a turn or two of masking tape. Note, too, that the joint tube doesn't have to be aluminium. It could also be plastic or copper pipe. Or even a wooden dowel, e.g. cut off a thin broom handle. Once the fabric has been wound on, it ain't gonna shift!

      Hey Stownley, if the film is bubbly at the edges wouldn’t it have to be dust or grit, contaminants from hands (oils), maybe too much material and it’s bunching up and needing to be trimmed back a little? If it’s water bubbles they will disappear in time. All the best, Kent

    really great video. definitely will subscribe. Can I ask, is it possible to grout in the drain or do you have to use silicone? Our shower is leaking and was a prior diy job. They have grouted in an infinity drain. To clarify, there is about a 2cm space along both the front and back of the infinity drain that is just grout (i.e they didn't tile up to the edge of the drain and just used grout). The grout now has small cracks in it that i assume are the source of the leak.

    This was very helpful today. I was attaching blinds to an aluminum gazebo. I decided to rivet the attachments the wrong way round initially so that I could practice how to drill out rivets (OK, maybe I didn’t decide that in advance). Excellent instructions, thank you from Canada!

    will a hair dryer help tame the curl in the tint from being rolled up?

      Hey Michael, I’m not sure about that as I haven’t had to do it. You are probably right though as a little heat can relax polyester (PET) products. Best of luck mate. Kent

    Fantastically helpful video. I would have ripped the door off the cabinet if I had not first watched this video. Door fixed in about 5 minutes! Thanks a lot!
